I hope you're kidding. We have better texts now than we did back in the days when the King James version was translated. The KJV is a great Bible and beautifully written but the notion that it's somehow uncorrupted is just a fantasy stirred up by ignorant backwoods pastors.

No I am not kidding. The fact is that the NIV and others use corrupted alexandrian texts. The KJV was taken from uncorrupted texts plain and simple. If you did a comparison of the NIV and KJV you would know this. The NIV is not even a complete translation
